GARMIN : Forerunner 935 : Ski

Voici donc mon dernier test sur la Forerunner 935, pour retrouver mes précédents articles :

Pour résumé ses articles je dirais qu’il est préférable d’avoir une Forerunner 920 plutôt qu’une Forerunner 935. La Forerunner 935 est moins fiable au niveau GPS et altimètre que la Forerunner 920. Ensuite elle embarque des gadgets dont la fiabilité n’est pas terrible : température, …  en plus la Forerunner 920 est bien plus économique. Malgré les défauts il y aurait pu avoir des options sympathiques, comme mettre le kilométrage pour le rameur électrique ou pour le vélo en salle … mais ce n’est pas le cas.

Les tests pour le ski :

J’ai donc fait 85 descentes : 232 km et 10h34min de ski. Sur ses 85 descentes, j’ai eu 6 fois une vitesse maximum fausse : (taux d’erreur : 6/85 = 7% d’erreur sur la vitesse maximum)

Ensuite je n’ai jamais eu de montée dans les statistiques, alors que par moment il fallait prendre de la vitesse pour remonté. Avec la Forerunner 920 je pouvais voir quand il y avait une montée sur la piste.

Enormément de chute libre de l’ALTIMETRE … plus de 15%. Par exemple :

Une chute juste qu’à 300m … je n’ai absolument pas le même problème avec la Forerunner 920.

En conclusion : comme pour les autres sports la Forerunner 935 est moins fiable que la Forerunner 920.

Garmin Connect pour le ski :

Sur « Garmin Connect », il n’y a rien pour le ski …. les seuls sports qui sont à l’honneur sont Course, Vélo, Natation, Golf. Les autres sports n’ont pas vraiment d’interface qui leur sont propres. C’est vraiment dommage …

GARMIN : Forerunner 935 version 8.00

Pas formidable cette mise à jours, la seule chose que j’attends c’est de pouvoir manuellement mettre le kilométrage sur le vélo d’intérieur et le rameur d’intérieur. Sachant que la fonctionnalité sur le rameur existait … mais elle a été supprimée.

Misère.

GARMIN Forerunner 935 : Quel est la température mesurée par la montre ?

J’avais fait plusieurs tests dans le Sauna, et la température augmente doucement … Aujourd’hui j’ai fait l’hivernale des templier, la température était comprise entre -6°C et 1°C degrés. Au départ la température était de -6°C , cela était affiché sur un thermomètre. A noter que ma voiture avait la même température.


Alors que la température était de -6°C la montre indiquait 11°C, on a un delta de 17°C. La montre n’était pas couverte pas un vêtement, elle était sur tous les vêtements.

Et maintenant voici une session dans un sauna à 70°C, la progression de la température est très lente.

A suivre.
